Harvest width matched to laxity
Measured before the incision, not estimated. Too wide, and no closure technique rescues the result.

The closure protocol behind FUT 2.0 — designed so hair grows through the scar instead of stopping at it.
Three things widen a donor scar: tension across the closure, follicles destroyed at the wound edges, and a wound that heals in a plane where hair cannot cross it. Traditional strip surgery got all three wrong by default.
HUMS addresses each one separately — strip width set against measured laxity, an incision plane that spares the follicles bordering the wound, and a layered closure that carries tension deep rather than at the skin surface.
Measured before the incision, not estimated. Too wide, and no closure technique rescues the result.
The incision angle preserves follicles on both sides so hair continues to grow at the line.
Deep layers carry the load; the surface is approximated rather than pulled.
Post-operative instructions protect the line through the fortnight when scar width is actually determined.
Sutures come out in about ten days. The line is tight for a week, itchy for a few more, and hair growing through it hides it from roughly the one-month mark. Most patients can wear a number three guard without the line being findable.
Consultations are free, measured and without obligation — in Newport Beach or by video.
